Enjoying a prominent position on the corner of Back Lane and Piggy Lane Saddleback is a beautifully appointed five bedroom detached home. Offering significant and versatile accommodation over 3 floors.
Designed and built to the very highest standard with interior design concepts by Rachel Maclane Ltd, the property commands attention and features a stunning oak porch, and rosemary tile detailing to the roof. One of just two brand new individually designed houses on Piggy Lane, the property combines stylish modern comforts with the proportions and substance of a more traditional country house.
Leading from a spacious and light hallway, the ground floor features an impressive open plan kitchen and family room. Very much the heart of this superb home, this area centres around a substantial kitchen island. A welcoming fireplace with oak beam and log burner provides further social space and opens to the garden room with vaulted ceiling and aluminium bi-fold doors. As well as filling this significant room with light, they create a welcoming sense of informal living space and a strong link to the outside. A separate living room, perfect for cosy evenings, a good sized practical utility/boot room and WC complete the ground floor which also benefits from underfloor heating.
A guest bedroom with an en-suite occupies the first floor alongside three further bedrooms and a house bathroom with beautiful feature tiling.
The second floor features a luxury master bedroom suite with vaulted ceiling and stylish bathroom and dressing area.
This property benefits from stunning landscaped front and rear gardens inspired by Chelsea medal winning Lizzie Tulip. There is a large Indian stone terrace accessed from the kitchen/family room and further areas to eat/ entertain and relax. Expertly planted beds/borders and specimen trees have been introduced to ensure this outside space compliments the house and makes the most of its South facing position. The property is approached through wooden gates to a parking area and detached garage. An attractive timber gate gives side gate access.
Bilbrough has excellent local amenities and enjoys a semi rural location amidst open countryside, yet is ideally placed for access to 'the golden triangle' York, Leeds and Harrogate. Major road networks are close by for travel further afield. The quintessential English country village, Bilbrough is just outside the York city boundary with The Three Hares country pub, a very active and welcoming village hall and a parish church dating back to Norman times. It has excellent transport links to neighbouring cities and towns with easy access to the A64, A1M and motorway network beyond. Leeds can be reached in half an hour and Harrogate in 45 minutes. York with its mainline railway station connecting to London in under 1 hour 10 mins and to Edinburgh and Manchester is a short drive to the South.
